No its the flex sextion. This has been proven over and over and over.

Hmm... if thats a common problem, makes me reluctant to put an aftermarket y-pipe on. I'll most likely do it when the oxy sensors fail, then i'll replace it all. Bees in the can sound sucks....that would **** me off

Has anybody got a good recording of the y-pipe sound from inside the car?

Maybe 2 or 3 clips....idle, accelerating, highway. Maybe with some conversation so we can tell how relatively loud it is?

I think you can tell from this thread how usefull it would be for newbies to know what to expect from a y-pipe (most common 1st mod?).

Com'on, I know you all got laptops and microphones and websites and all that tech!
